J-Novel Club Adds "Walking My Second Path in Life" Light Novel Series

J-Novel Club’s latest license marks their first light novel series from Earthstar Entertainment’s Earthstar Novels line. Walking My Second Path in Life comes from Otaku de Neet, with illustrations by Kurodeko, and the first half of volume 1 is now available for members at j-novel.club.

There are currently two volumes of the ongoing series out in Japan, and the web novel on which it’s based is still running on Syosetsu ni Narou(Let’s Be Novelists). The E-Book for the first volume will go on sale at this December.

Here’s the full description:

I am the first Princess of D- you know what, nevermind, you’ve probably never even heard of the place.

Apparently, my father had the amazing idea of marrying me off to King Roy, the famous “Emperor of Ice” of the great Kingdom of Orstoll.

Isn’t that great?

No, it’s not great at all!

––

Fie, first princess of Deeman, finds herself isolated and stranded in the foreign Kingdom of Orstoll all by her lonesome – effectively having been wed off as a dowry gift in accessory to her sister, Princess Fielle’s marriage.

Trapped and isolated in a small back garden that once used to be a storehouse, Fie lives her days without purpose, and eventually without food – after the only member of her entourage, the chef, resigns.

Just as Fie was about to give in to despair, she finds a pamphlet advertising a Squire’s test for the Royal Knights of Orstoll – beginning her journey of friendship, hard work, and guts, along with masquerading as a boy to walk her second path in life.
